You may be wondering how the stars always look great on cam or whenever they are outside and seen by everyone. They get their top tips from celebrity stylists. We want you to feel like a celebrity in your own right and share some of the best tips so you can get the right clothes that flatter your body:

Get the right fit

Bigger clothes will even make you bigger. Clothes that fit right show the right curves and bumps where they should be. If an item does not fit right, you can always have it altered. An excellent tailor can make you a lot better for just a few bucks.

Dark colors on your unflattering areas

You have the nice long and shapely legs but you want your body to look slimmer. So attract the eyes to your legs with a bright pair of pants and wear something dark on top.

No to boxy shapes

Boxy shapes create an illusion of making your body wider. You want to have that vertical magic and make you look longer. In order to do this, say no to crop tops and instead choose tops that rests around your hips.

Great jeans are crucial

Every girl needs her excellent pair of denim. Although skinny jeans are in, they do not always make girls look slim. Invest on a great slight boot-cut pair in dark wash shade. If you really want to go for skinny jeans but you are on a bigger scale, then go for the straight skinny jeans.

Highlight the assets

You need to put the spotlight on your wow factors. If you have an hourglass shaped body, then get clothes that will highlight your hips. If your legs are worth millions, then get a pair of jeans that can lengthen them.
